Microbial community assembly in the fermentation of cigar tobacco leaves.
Review in Frontiers in bioengineering and biotechnology, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Microbial communities play pivotal roles in the fermentation of cigar tobacco leaves. Although high-throughput sequencing technology has facilitated the exploration of these communities, a comprehensive understanding of their assembly mechanisms remains elusive. This review integrates the current knowledge regarding microbial sources, ecological dynamics, and evolutionary processes during cigar tobacco fermentation. We systematically assess the abiotic factors (temperature, humidity, nutrients) and biotic interactions (quorum sensing, metabolic coordination) which influence the microbial community. Moreover, we put forward strategies for synthetic community engineering and discuss the emerging applications of artificial intelligence in fermentation optimization. These insights deepen the understanding of microbial communities in cigar tobacco leaves, and provide new perspectives on regulating microbial communities to enhance the fermentation quality of cigar tobacco leaves.
